You go around in a circle of 15 or 20 people and by the time the original message gets back to the first person it has usually changed drastically, and that is only in a few minutes time with a few people. Imagine how much things get skewed over a span of 100 plus years and millions of people.

It's just like saying no two snowflakes are alike, they cannot prove that. They would have to examine every single snowflake that has ever fallen in the history of the world and compare them to all the other snowflakes. Impossible. To me this map holds no merit whatsoever. But I am naive, because I don't believe everything I hear.
Dunno where you are from but most of our relatives owned slaves fool.
